Using Herbs

Teas for digestive issues – coats & works on digestive organs / good cellular efficacy

Tinctures for stronger cellular efficacy – quick absorption – stronger potency

Poultices for topical issues (wounds, sprains, bruises)

TEAS 3 types of teas: Cold, Hot, & Decoctions

Teas (aka “Infusions”):

Conserves almost all components of plant

Dry herb – 1-2 tsp per cup of boiled water

Fresh herb – 2-4 tsp per cup of boiled water

Usually drink a few glasses a day

Hot Infusion:

Usually meant for flowers and leaves.

(Boil water. Turn off unit. Stir herbs into water. Cover with lid to preserve oils. Allow to steep for 20

minutes / until water has cooled. Strain and drink. Don’t boil herbs!)

Keeps for 5-7 days in fridge.

Cold Infusion:

Usually meant for more delicate, fragrant herbs, herbs with lots of oils (mint, Uva Ursi, nettle), or

mucilage herbs (comfrey, burdock, slippery elm, marshmallow)

Keeps for 2-3 days when refrigerated.

Decoctions:

Usually meant for tougher plants like the roots and barks.

Prepared by gently simmering herbs in water for 15-30 minutes on a low heat setting with lid on.

P a g e | 7

NOTE: Decoctions can be skipped when using powdered roots and barks. Use the powdered roots and

bark for making cold / hot tea or making tinctures.

CAPSULES / TABLETS

Capsules:

Place powdered herb in empty capsule. Usually take 3 capsules a few times a day.

Home-made tablets:

Mix powdered herb with marshmallow root powder / slippery elm powder / comfrey powder. 1:9

ratio.

Add enough water to create play-dough-like consistency.

Shape into pills and allow to dry in open air or dehydrator or oven at 250°. Poke holes in them, if

needed, to help them dry out.

Bottle and keep in cool, dry place. Keeps for 1-2 years.

POULTICE

Powdered herb mixed in water to create paste.

Apply to wounds, broken bones, arthritis, bruises, and sprains.

Amazingly effective at healing wounds and stopping bleeding.

12 hours on. 12 hours off.

Keep covered with cloth / saran wrap!

Gently wash off with water when removing.

Can use: comfrey, goldenseal, calendula, yarrow, slippery elm, chamomile, plantain, Oregon grape root

One blend is equal parts of: comfrey, calendula, yarrow. Can also add in a sprinkle of cayenne.

Note: Oregon Grape root, yarrow, and goldenseal are more potent infection fighters.

P a g e | 8

Note:

Herbs keep longer in whole form (aka “cut & sifted” form). Store in whole / bulk form (not powder

form).

Use in whole / bulk form for teas.

Either use in bulk form or mash into powder for tincture.

TINCTURES

Tinctures are a concentrated form of herbal medicine using solvents (vodka, vinegar, glycerin).

Alcohol is most effective at drawing out the important properties of the herbs and has a long shelf life

(2-6 years).

Tinctures take effect very quickly.

Best vodka to use is 100 proof (50:50) – only $18 for 1.75 ozat liquor store!

Average dose is 30 drops / ¼ teaspoon.

Simplest method:

Cover herbs with vodka in glass jar (about an inch over the herbs) until it can slosh around when

shaking jar.

Check after first day to see if it needs more vodka. Add more, if needed, to create same sloshy

consistency.

Let sit in dark place. Shake once a day.

Done in 2 weeks. Strain when done. Keep in darker jar / storage.

Measured Tincture:

1 gram of herb for every 3 ml vodka

(e.g. 100 grams of goldenseal + 300 ml of vodka)

Check after day 1-2 – add more vodka, if necessary.

Mix together. Shake daily. Keep in dark place.

Do so for 2 weeks. Strain and bottle.

Yarrow

Yarrow is one of the greatest diaphoretic

herbs. It will raise the heat of the body, equalize the circulation

and produce perspiration, when taken hot.

Take as tea to produce sweating!

Uses: Fevers, cold, flus, stops bleeding, helps with digestive issues, respiratory illnesses

(teas and / or tinctures for internal / external bleeding,

yarrow powder / poultice for external bleeding as well can shut bleeding down right away)

Give tea as warm as possible – 1-2 cups, 3-6 times a day to help keep fevers in wet state.

Bentonite Clay

Bentonite clay can be used in the following ways:

Topically for burns

Topically for large wounds

Topically for bites / stings

Topically for infections

Topically for bruises

Internally for illnesses

Internally for food poisoning

Radiation Exposure

As a toothpaste to potentially reverse and prevent cavities

Internally for removal of toxins (pesticides, chemicals, heavy metals, etc)

In a bath for extra toxin removal and overall healing

In a foot bath for toxin removal and overall healing

Important!

Cover burns / wounds with saran wrap so clay doesn’t dry out and cause further harm to the

injured area.

Cover infections with a breathable fabric so it dries out some which helps to draw out the

infection.

Clay Instructions:

Liquid Clay (for internal toxins, food poisoning, flu, heavy metals, boost immune system, radiation exposure, etc)

¼ cup clay in one gallon of water. Stir and let sit for 20 minutes. Stir again. Let sit for another 20

minutes. Drink top water – mix in some of clay particles – not necessary to drink much of the actual clay

particles.

Clay gel (for burns, bites, stings, wounds, etc)

1 part clay to 2 parts water (may need to add a little more water into it) Place onto wound. Leave on for

hours / overnight. Replace with new clay again. Allow to air out for a few hours if necessary.

Clay bath – for radiation exposure / overall detoxing:

1 cup of clay mixed in pitcher of water. Add to bath. Bathe for 20 minutes.

Activated Charcoal

Can be used for:

Radiation Exposure

Food Poisoning

Gas / Bloated

Heavy Metal Detox

Skin Irritations

Allergic Reaction

Bites / Stings

Snake Bites

Sore Throats

Acid Reflux

Bladder Infection

Internal Infection

For Radiation Exposure:

Studies show that charcoal possesses the unique ability to neutralize radiation, and that 10 grams of charcoal

can neutralize up to 7 grams of toxic material. Take up to several charcoal capsules per hour when radiation is in

the atmosphere – drinking with plenty water. Or take up to 1-2 T. of activated charcoal mixed in large glass of

water every 1-3 hours. Decrease this amount by half for children.

For snake bites:

(BEST option) Immediately, apply a very large charcoal compress covering almost an entire extremity, centering

over the bite, using large quantities of activated charcoal, wet with water and kept moist with plastic wrap. A

new compress should be placed over the immediate vicinity of the snake bite every 10-15 minutes.

Activated Charcoal should also be taken by mouth, in the quantity of approx. 2 Tbsp. every 2 hours, for 3 doses,

and 1 tsp. every hour for 24 hours. Each dose should be followed by 2 glasses of water. (17)

Or take up to 1-2 T. of activated charcoal mixed in large glass of water every 2-3 hours. Decrease this amount by

half for children. Take for up to 2 weeks.

P a g e | 42

Baking Soda

Baking soda can be used for:

Bites

Burns

Stings

To kick out flu / cold

To eliminate acid reflux

To alkalize body

MRSA

Day 1 -- Take six doses of ½ teaspoon of baking soda in glass of cool water, at about two-hour intervals

Day 2 -- Take four doses of ½ teaspoon of baking soda in glass of cool water, at the same intervals

Day 3 -- Take two doses of ½ teaspoon of baking soda in glass of cool water morning and evening, and

thereafter ½ teaspoon in glass of cool water each morning until cold symptoms are gone.

Baking soda is best used for short periods of time in conjunction with other nutritional supports to prevent

nutritional imbalances.

Warning: Do not use internally if you are on a sodium restricted diet unless directed by a doctor.

Also used in sinus rinse bottles or enemas to help adjust water to same pH as body so body doesn’t reject the water.

P a g e | 43

Saniderm

Breathable thin translucent bandage that can be used as a substitute for stitches. Saniderm.com

Cleaning wounds before applying:

Help the person to remain calm. If the cut is large or bleeding heavily, have them lie down. If the wound

is on an arm or leg, raise the limb above the heart to slow bleeding. (21)

Remove obvious debris from the wound, such as sticks or grass. If the object is embedded in the body,

do NOT remove it. (21) (Using a poultice with either bentonite clay or slippery elm will help pull debris

out of the wound. See “Deep Wounds” in this chapter for instructions on how to do this.)

If the cut is small, wash it out with soap and water. (21)

After putting on clean latex gloves, apply firm pressure to the wound with a folded cloth or bandage for

about 10 minutes. Do not remove the bandage to look at the wound during this time, as it may begin

bleeding again. If blood soaks through, add another cloth or bandage and continue holding pressure on

the cut for an additional 10 minutes. (21)

There are a hand full of remedies recommended within this book that will help get bleeding under control. They

are:

• Asea

• Baking Soda

• Bentonite Clay

• Cayenne

• Hydrogen Peroxide

• Slippery Elm

• Yarrow

When bleeding has stopped, wash off any remedy you may have used, spray on silver or spread Neosporin on

and tape a clean bandage over the cut (or use Saniderm).

Instructions for using Saniderm:

Do not use sandierm for very large and open wounds – use slippery elm or an herbal poultice or clay.

Saniderm should be large enough to spread out one inch away from all sides of wound.

Wound will weep under bandage causing liquid to pool under bandage. That is good – this liquid helps the

wound to heal more quickly. Take off of wound after 24 hours. Rinse off wound. Allow to dry. Add Neosporin /

silver / other remedy. Reapply new Saniderm. Repeat as needed.

P a g e | 44

Nebulizer

Respiratory illnesses are one of the leading causes of death during a disaster. One of the best ways to treat

a respiratory illness is by using a nebulizer.

Only a few remedies can be used in the nebulizer. REMEMBER our lungs are made of sensitive, delicate

tissues – do not nebulize harsh or questionable remedies. DO NOT nebulize essential oils.

Remedies that can be safely nebulized include:

- ASAP Silver - Asea

- Nascent Iodine *** - GSE (possibly) ***

- Glutathione (specific type) - Baking Soda ***

- HypoRedox ***

- Magnesium Chloride

*** Be careful with these!

The following examples illustrate different ideas:

o Two minutes of nebulizer use every 15 minutes for four hours.

o Five minutes of nebulizer use every hour. .

o 10 ml of colloidal alkalizing solution inhaled until gone. Generally takes 20 minutes 1-4 times a day.

Nebulizing remedies can be effective for:

Lung Cancer

Pneumonia

Tuberculosis

Emphysema

Influenza (flu)

Chemical Poisoning

Asthma

Bronchitis

Other Respiratory Infections

Illness Prevention

Nebulizing is also another way to get medicines into the body on a systemic level in cases where an ill person

cannot hold remedies down. Consider applying tinctures or essential oils to meridian points, using Yarrow tea

and using a nebulizer if this is the case. If the person is dehydrated and their electrolyte levels are low (and

there isn’t a way to get the person IV’s) perform a retention enema a few times a day.

P a g e | 45

Enema / Rectal Syringe

Think of an enema bag as an IV. People die due to dehydration and loss of electrolyte levels during an illness. If

we can’t get to a doctor – performing a retention enema will help supply the fluids, electrolytes, and nutrients a

person needs to help them get over the illness they have.

Enemas can also be used to relieve constipation (which is another big issue during disaster) and can trigger labor

– if needed.

Enemas can be used as follows:

You will need:

a clean enema bag, or a can or tin with tubing.

a cloth to place under the person.

600 ml (a little more than ½ a liter bottle / 2 cups) of warm (not hot) drinking water. If you have them, an

electrolyte drink/mixture or a bag of IV solution can be used instead.

P a g e | 46

What to do:

Make sure the person’s body is higher than their head.

1. Tell the person what you are doing and why.

2. Wash your hands.

3. Ask him/her to lie on her left side if she can. If possible, her body should be a little higher than her head.

4. If you have them, put on clean gloves.

5. Let the water come down to the end of the tube to get the air out. Then pinch the tubing to stop the

flow.

6. Wet the end of the tube with water or an oil, and slide it into the anus. If coherent, ask the person to

take slow, deep breaths to help them relax.

Do not put the tube in more than this much.

7. Hold the bag or can just high enough for the water to run in very slowly (about the level of the person’s

hips). It should take about 20 minutes. If the water runs out of their body, the bag may be too high. Lower

the bag so the water runs in more slowly.

8. Gently remove the tube. Tell the person to try and keep the water inside, and that the urge to pass stool

will go away soon. If the person is unconscious, you can hold their buttocks together. Retention enemas

need to be retained for 20-30 minutes to allow the body to

absorb the liquids within the colon.

9. Clean and dry the person. Then remove your gloves and wash your

hands.

10. If needed, transport the person for medical help right away. For

enemas for those who are in shock - If the person is still in shock,

you can give another enema one hour later. If he/she is not in

shock, try to give sips of rehydration drink as you transport

him/her.

P a g e | 47

Eye & Ear Infections

Ear infections can be treated using one or more of these methods:

Internally (antibiotic options such as goldenseal, Oregon grape root, nano silver, HypoRedos)

Around outside of ear: lavender oil, basil essential oil, diluted thieves oil, tea tree oil, rubbing yarrow

tincture around outside of ear

Inside ear: nano silver, hydrogen peroxide, straight onion juice, garlic chopped and soaked in olive oil for a

few hours, diluted HypoRedox

Apply remedies to meridian points for earache.

Do not use remedies inside the ear if you suspect that the ear drum may have burst.

Signs and symptoms of a ruptured eardrum may include:

Ear pain that may subside quickly.

Clear, pus-filled or bloody drainage from your ear.

Hearing loss.

Ringing in your ear (tinnitus)

Spinning sensation (vertigo)

Nausea or vomiting that can result from vertigo.

Use remedy inside the ear by filling a dropper with the solution. Run it under warm water for a minute by plugging

one end of the dropper with your finger. Have child lie down with infected ear facing up. Drop the silver in to the ear

canal until the ear canal has filled up. Have child stay this way for 5 minutes. Place tissue on ear and turn onto the

other side, allowing the silver to drain out. Re-apply 2 more times that day.

Use the silver internally as well: 1 tsp 3-4 times a day or more.

P a g e | 49

HypoRedox

There’s a small list of remedies that I believe were put on this Earth at this time for current (and future)

situations by a loving and caring Heavenly Father. HypoRedox is one of these remedies/solutions.

To purchase the HypoRedox visit www.HealthyPreparedness.blogspot.com and go to the “Store” tab at

the top of the page – then click on the link for “more info” under the HypoRedox section.

INTRO

HypoRedox is a hypochlorous acid solution (HOCl). Hypochlorous acid is a disinfectant that is lethal to

every pathogen harmful to humans including pathogens such as MRSA, E. Coli, Candida, Meningitis,

Encephilitis, Salmonella, HIV, Epstein Barr, and much more. (See lab test results at the bottom of this info.

sheet)

It disinfects 120 times better than bleach (NaClO) – yet is non-toxic and non-irritating! Bacteria can’t

become resistant to it – in fact, it kills every pathogen (virus, bacteria, fungus, mold, etc) that it has been

scientifically tested against. (See the test results at the bottom of this information sheet.)

Not only is hypochlorous acid an amazing disinfectant but it also has the ability to speed up the healing

process. Why this is the case isn’t exactly known but it more than likely has something to do with the

redox molecules contained in this special solution allowing the cells to communicate with one another in

a more effective way.

As mentioned above, HypoRedox is a hypochlorous acid solution. Although the word “acid” is in its name

– it actually isn’t acidic at all because hypochlorous acid only exists in a solution with a neutral pH. In order

for this type of disinfectant to be most effective it has to have around a 6 pH balance.

The reported benefits of Hypchlorous Acid include:

• Speeds up healing of wounds. (See Vetericyn link)

P a g e | 50

• Disinfects wounds, cuts, burns, etc (See Vetericyn link)

• Kills bacteria and viruses on contact including E.Coli, Listeria, Salmonella, HIV, and MRSA. (See test

results at the bottom of this information sheet.)

• Kills fungi and molds on contact. (See test results at the bottom of this information sheet.)

• Non-irritating, non-stinging, non-toxic.

The possible uses of Hypochlorous Acid include:

• Wound healing and disinfection.* (See Vetericyn link)

• Eye infections.* (http://novabay.com/blog-post/new-treatment-pinkeye)

• Ear infections.* (See Vetericyn link)

• For sore throats?

• For flu’s / illnesses?

• For food poisoning?

• Disinfecting tools, surfaces, equipment. (See test results at bottom of this info. sheet)

• Disinfecting vegetables / fruits / meats.

• Disinfecting ill / deceased bodies?*

• Disinfecting areas that have been infected by vomit or diarrhea.

• Disinfecting linens / materials (Think of disinfecting linens covered in diarrhea, vomit, or blood in

disaster situations.)

• Disinfecting airborne pathogens by placing in a humidifier.

• Disinfecting water of pathogens.*

• Disinfecting dishwashers.

*Note: HypoRedox isn’t certified for internal or topical use. It is EPA certified meaning that it’s certified

to be used for tools and equipment. The maker of this product didn’t have interest in getting (or paying)

for extra certifications to deem this safe to use in ways other than using it as a “surgical tool disinfectant”.

Because this solution doesn’t have an actual certification saying that it’s okay to use topically or internally

- I cannot recommend others use it topically or internally. I will, however, explain how I personally have

used it- or would use it-for each of the uses listed above. (See “How I, Personally, Use HypoRedox.)

THE FIVE STEPS TO SUCCESSFUL MEALS!

ONE: always make sure all ingredients are thawed.

Frozen food will cause the temperatures to drop abnormally faster inside your thermal cooker. Use fresh or

completely thawed ingredients to ensure an even heat retention during your slow cook.

TWO: Always make sure your ingredients are covered in liquid and can get to a even boil, first. This Means that

your meal may start out looking more like a soup, with a watered down sauce, but this ensures everything will

get to an even heating point.

THREE: To get the maximum SLOW COOK make sure you always have the thermal cooker as full as possible! Air

is the enemy to heat retention. The less airspace you have inside your pots of boiling food, before you place the

cooking pots into the thermal cooking unit, the better the thermal cooker performs.

FOUR: Check the temperature of your meal before serving, to ensure safe serving temperatures.

When your food is at a hard boil it is around 212 degrees Fahrenheit (give or take a few degrees at varying

altitudes). A good "slow cook" occurs when you can sustain your food above 170 degrees Fahrenheit for several

hours, which you can do while using a thermal cooker, by trapping the thermal energy off the boil, in the

insulated thermal unit. Once the temperatures cool down to 145 degrees Fahrenheit, the cook must either

reheat or refrigerate, as they should always do with any leftovers from any other method of home cooking, as

well.

FIVE: If dinner is at Six, get it started and in the Thermal Cooker at the appropriate time.

Slow cook recipes like Pot Roasts take up to eight hours. Make sure you plan ahead enough time to make that

happen. Other recipes like soups and stews, especially ones made from prepackaged dehydrated or freeze dried

soup mixes, don't need as much time, but can certainly also stay ready to serve for up to eight hours.

Sprouting Grains, Seeds, Nuts, Legumes

Sprouted foods are an indoor garden and powerhouse of nutrition waiting to be unlocked.

A Yale University study of grains, seeds and beans showed that sprouting substantially increases all B-vitamins from 20

percent to 600 percent – even up to 2000%! Vitamin E content increases 300 percent in sprouted wheat after four days

of sprouting.

Sprouts are a complete food - they contain “complete proteins” and all other essential dietary nutrients, along with

enzymes to help assimilate them.

Ways to Eat Sprouts:

a snack

in stir fry

on salads

inside tortillas

on pizzas

juicing with veggie juices

on top of soups

on sandwiches

with breakfast cereals

Rotational System:

Every evening soak a new batch (or 2 or 3) of grains, nuts, seeds, or beans in a jar.

Rinse twice a day (morning and evening). Keep upside down at 45° angle.

If there isn’t a way to refrigerate the grains – eat all of the fully sprouted grains or toss what’s left over.

Lacto-Fermented Foods

Benefits of lacto-fermenting foods:

Fermented foods are foods that have been through a process of lacto fermentation in which natural bacteria

feed on the sugar and starch in the food creating lactic acid. This process preserves the food, and creates

beneficial enzymes, b-vitamins, Omega-3 fatty acids, and various strains of probiotics.

Natural fermentation of foods has also been shown to preserve nutrients in food and break the food down to a

more digestible form. This, along with the bevy of probiotics created during the fermentation process, could

explain the link between consumption of fermented foods and improved digestion.

Fermenting Basics:

1 glass quart jar with a plastic lid

1 to 1 1/2 tablespoons sea salt

2 cups filtered water

Any Combination of Raw Organic Vegetables:

chopped cauliflower

chopped beets

chopped carrots

chopped green beans

chopped bell peppers

sliced radishes

sliced daikon

sliced cucumbers

chopped turnips

chopped broccoli

chopped kale

chopped onions

chopped green onions

chopped garlic

cabbage leaves (for the top)

Any Combination of Herbs and Spices:

dried chili peppers

black peppercorns

bay leaf

fresh dill

fresh basil

fresh tarragon

fresh mint

sea vegetables (arame or hijiki) - use less salt if using these

P a g e | 56

1. Dissolve your sea salt in water in a glass jar or 2-cup glass measure.

2. Place you favorite combination of vegetables into a quart jar (you can use a larger cylindrical jar or

ceramic crock instead, just double or triple the salt brine keeping the same ratio of salt and water).

Add a few layers of herbs and spices too. Make sure you leave about an inch from the top of the jar.

3. Cover with your salt brine, leaving about an inch to a half inch from the top. Fold a small cabbage

leaf and press it into the brine so the water floats above it and the vegetables are completely

submerged. Cover with a plastic lid (it is best not to use metal as the salt and acids can corrode it,

though I have used them occasionally if that is all I have). Screw the lids on tightly.

4. After day 2 or 3 begin to "burp" your jars once or twice daily to let excess gasses escape. You can

do this by unscrewing the lid just enough to hear the gasses release and then quickly tightening it

back up. You should see a bit of bubbling and some liquid possibly dripping out after about day

three, depending on the heat level in your home. I like to place my jars into some sort of container,

like a rectangular Pyrex dish, to catch any drips. Set your jars in an undisturbed place in your kitchen

out of direct sunlight.

5. Taste! You can taste the veggies after about five days to see how soured they are. I prefer to let

mine ferment for about 7 to 8 days in the winter and 5 to 6 days in late summer. I have also let them

ferment for 10 or more days. Just experiment, there is no exact science with fermentation. After

your veggies are soured to your liking place the jar (or jars) into your refrigerator where they will

store for months.

Sauerkraut Recipe:

One large cabbage

1 Tbsp. sea salt

Instructions:

1. Shred cabbage using either a large, sharp knife or use a food processor - which makes the job SO

much easier.

2. In a bowl, mix shredded cabbage with sea salt.

3. Pound with a wooden pounder, a meat hammer or something like a potato masher (which is what

I use) for about 5-10 minutes to release juices.

4. Place in a quart sized jar and press down the top of the cabbage with a spoon.

P a g e | 57

The top of the cabbage should be at least 1 1/2 inches below the top of the jar - it will expand! Cover

tightly and keep at room temp. for about 3-7 days before transferring to cold storage. The

sauerkraut may be eaten immediately, but improves with age.

*If the juice doesn't cover the sauerkraut simply add some salt water into the jar. (Dissolve 1 tsp of

sea salt in one cup of warm water.)

Two things to remember:

Do not open the jar until the 2 or 3 days have past. Opening the jar may ruin the lacto-fermentation

process that has begun.

You'll know if you didn't create a successful fermentation process because your food will go bad and

stink super bad and there'd be no way you'd want to eat it. So either it worked or it didn't.

Breads & Bread-Like Foods

The wheat and grains we store can be used for more than just making bread! We need to collect

Flatbread / Tortilla recipe:

9 cups while wheat flour

1-2 cubes butter, softened

3 cups warm water

2 tsp salt

1 tsp baking powder

3/4 cup plain yogurt

Place flour in mixing bowl.

Add baking powder and mix.

Add butter and yogurt to mix.

Turn on mixer for a bit to mix in.

Place water in separate bowl.

Sir salt into water.

Pour water into mixer as it's mixing.

Add more flour, if needed, or more water to create soft (but non-sticky) dough.

Place dough in bowl.

Cover with saran wrap.

Allow to sit at room temperature for 8-10 hours.

Stretch out / roll out dough to desired width and size.

Place on warm pan - cook each side until the sides begin to brown.

Place cooked and cooled flat breads in baggie / bowl with lid. Keep in fridge. Keeps for 7-14 days.

Natural Yeast (aka “starter”):

Make and use natural yeasts for making the most nutritionally bioavailable bread possible:

A natural yeast is simply made up of flour and water. That’s it!

Simply:

Mix the two together. Allow it to ferment. Allow a few days for it to become a strong active start.

And use it!

Day 1:

Fill jar ¼ way full with flour. Add enough luke warm water to create waffle batter-like consistency.

P a g e | 59

Allow to sit for 24 hours.

Day 2:

After the 24 hour period, “feed” your starter by using the ratio chart below.

Allow to sit for 24 hours.

Day 3:

Feed twice in 24 hour period (usually morning and night). Dump some of it if the jar is too full.

Day 4:

The starter should be nice and active now and is ready to be used. If it isn’t active yet – feed it again

and let it sit for another 24 hour period. Then begin feeding it twice a day.

* * *

Continue feeding your once a day. There is no need to measure how much you'll be putting in.

Simply follow this guideline:

If you need to take a break from caring for your starter simply place it in your fridge and feed it

(proper flour and water ratios) once a week.

If you have more starter than you need, throw some of it away and continue feeding the

remaining starter its proper ratios.

P a g e | 60

If, after the first three day period, you forget to feed the starter, a thin film will begin to form

on top of your starter. This film isn't harmful. Your starter isn't ruined. Simply scrape off the film

and feed your starter as usual.

Black, pink or rotten smelling starter means your starter has been infested with bad bacteria -

throw it away and start over.
